It provides a detailed analysis of the legal framework under which arbitral tribunals usually operate in investment disputes involving allegations of illegality. Readers will find step-by-step examinations of the corruption and fraud arguments employed by arbitral tribunals in ten landmark ISDS cases, followed by a chapter summarizing the status quo on the topic. The final part of the book discusses the identified challenges of addressing illegality issues in investment arbitration and potential solutions, including the creation of a multilateral investment court.European yearbook of international economic law.EYIEL monographs ;Volume 22.Arbitration and awardFraudesfreECLASArbitragefreECLASRèglement de différendsfreECLASInvestissements publicsfreECLAScorruptionengEUROVOCdirect investmentengEUROVOCforeign investmentengEUROVOCpublic investmentengEUROVOCfraudengEUROVOCarbitrationengEUROVOCinvestmentengEUROVOCsettlement of disputesengEUROVOCArbitration and award.FraudesArbitrageRèglement de différendsInvestissements publicscorruptiondirect investmentforeign investmentpublic investmentfraudarbitrationinvestmentsettlement of disputes347.09Tussupov Adilbek1077893MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910522921103321Corruption and Fraud in Investment Arbitration2589421UNINA05120oam 2200541 450 991077988330332120190911112729.0981-4460-25-7(OCoLC)852149531(MiFhGG)GVRL8RBK(EXLCZ)99255000000109603920130510h20132013 uy 0engurun|---uuuuatxtccrAchieving the rare Robert F.

He was a co-creator of the world's first nuclear reactor and the first atom bombs, of which the most practical design was called the "Christy Gadget." Later, he became a leader in the effort to contain nuclear proliferation, leading up to the SALT talks, and headed a study on long-term health effects of radiation crucial for medical safety standards.
